Thursday night — for the fifth time this short season — the Flyers had a chance to reach the .500 mark, and once again (0-5) failed miserably trying to do so. But at least they have been consistent, allowing exactly five goals in each of those games. They are being outscored 25-10 in those contests.

Thursday's game against the Panthers was the first of those five games that was at home and the first of those five against a team also under .500. It was also the first of those five games in which the Flyers never led.
